歌词
I was a p.f.c. on a search patrol, huntin’ charlie down
我曾经是巡逻队的一等兵，追猎越共游击队
It was in the jungle wars of ’65
在1965年的密林之中
My weapon jammed and I got stuck way out and all alone
武器突然卡壳，和大部队失散
And I could hear the enemy movin’ in close outside
听见敌人步步紧逼
Just then I heard a twig snap and I grabbed my empty gun
有人踩断树枝，连忙拿起空枪
And I dug in scared while I counted down my fate
蜷成一团束手待毙
And then a big marine a giant, with a pair of friendly eyes
突然一个陆战队大兵，眼神亲切和善
Appeared there at my shoulder and said wait.
出现在我身边说：“且慢。”
When he came in close beside me, he said don’t worry, son, I’m here
他近前安慰道：“小子别怕，有我在，”
If charlie wants to tangle now, he’ll have two to dodge
“如果越共想纠缠，他们只会自讨没趣。”
I said, well, thanks a lot! I told him my name and asked him his
我说：“多谢救命之恩。”告诉他我的名字，并问他姓甚名谁
And he said the boys just call me camouflage
他说：“小伙子们都管我叫迷彩哥。”
Woah-oh-oh-oh, camouflage
哦哦哦，迷彩哥
Things are never quite the way they seem
人不可貌相，海水不可斗量
Woah-oh-oh-oh, camouflage
哦哦哦，迷彩哥
I was awfully glad to see this big marine
看见这大兵总能使我欢欣鼓舞
Well, I was gonna ask him where he came from, when we heard the bullets fly
我正要问他来自何处，突然枪声大作
Comin’ through the brush, and all around our ears
透过层层密林，萦绕在我们耳边
It was then I saw this big marine light a fire in his eye
这时大兵眼中燃起熊熊斗志
And it was strange, but suddenly, I forgot my fears
我竟然也将恐惧抛至九霄云外
Well, we fought all night, side by side, we took our battle stance
我们并肩战斗，彻夜坚守阵地
And I wondered how the bullets missed this man
但我一直纳闷他怎么能毫发无损
’cause they seemed to go right through him just as if he wasn’t there
因为子弹就从他中间穿过，仿佛他是透明人一般
And in the mornin’ we both took a chance and ran
黎明时我们趁机杀出重围
And it was near the riverbank when the ambush came on top of us
在那河畔一角，敌人设伏突袭
And I thought it was the end, and we were had
我感到大难临头死期将至
Then a bullet with my name on it came buzzin’ through a bush
那颗要我命的子弹从树林中呼啸而来
And that big marine, he just swat it with his hand
再看那个大兵，他竟然用手轻松将其拍开
Just like it was a fly...
“这就跟苍蝇一样嘛！”
Woah-oh-oh-oh, camouflage
哦哦哦，迷彩哥
Things are never quite the way they seem
人不可貌相，海水不可斗量
Woah-oh-oh-oh, camouflage
哦哦哦，迷彩哥
This was an awfully strange marine
这大兵真是不可思议
And I knew there was somethin’ weird about him,
当我转过身来
’cause when I turned around,
更诡异的一幕出现
He was pullin’ a big palm tree up outta the ground
他拔起一颗参天大树
Swattin’ those charlies with it from here to kingdom come
把越共打出九霄云外
When he led me outta danger I saw my camp and waved goodbye
当我们逃出生天，我看见营地，向他告别
He just winked at me from the jungle and then was gone
他挤了挤眼，消失于丛林中
When I got back to my h.q., I told ’em about my night
当我回到总部，报告昨夜的遭遇
And the battle I’d spent with a big marine named camouflage
和一个叫迷彩哥的大兵并肩战斗的经历
When I said his name, the soldier gulped, and a medic took my arm
当我说出他的名字，一个士兵倒吸一口凉气，军医牵着我的胳膊
And led me to a green tent on the right
来到右边一个绿色帐篷旁
He said you may be tellin’ true, boy, but this here is camouflage
他说：“小子，你可能说的都是真的，但迷彩哥在这儿，”
And he’s been right here since he passed away last night
“从他昨夜伤重不治就一直在这里。”
In fact, he’s been here all week long...
“其实他已经在这儿抢救一周了。”
But before he went, he said semper fi, and said his only wish
“但在临终前他说：‘我将永远忠诚’”。他说他唯一的遗愿，
Was to save a young marine caught in a barrage
就是化作英灵拯救一个迷途小兵
So here, take his dog tag, son, I know he’d want you to have it now
“给，拿着他的狗牌，我知道他是想让你留作纪念。”
And we both said a prayer for a big marine named camouflage
我们愿他一路走好，那位叫迷彩哥的大兵
Woah-oh-oh-oh, camouflage
哦哦哦，迷彩哥
Things are never quite the way they seem
人不可貌相，海水不可斗量
Woah-oh-oh-oh, camouflage
哦哦哦，迷彩哥
This was an awfully big marine
那大兵的身影真是伟岸
So next time you’re in a jungle fight, and you feel a presence near
今后若你战斗在丛林中，感到有人如影随形
Or hear a voice that in your mind will lodge
亦或是冥冥之中听见一个声音
Just be thankful that you’re not alone and you’ve got some company
你应庆幸你不再是孤单一人，他一直与你并肩战斗
From a big marine the boys call camouflage
他就是人称迷彩哥的大兵
Woah-oh-oh-oh, camouflage
哦哦哦，迷彩哥
Things are never quite the way they seem
人不可貌相，海水不可斗量
